On September 18th we had our second Meet & Greet Orientation at the Elk River Public Library. We invited the community to come and hear about our efforts and to let them know how they can help us grow. Members of the Elk River Area Food Co-op Board of Directors answered questions and a few of our partners had the chance to say why they believed in the co-op!

Around 15 community members came out and 8 NEW MEMBER OWNERS signed up on the spot.

The energy was high as we talked about the vision and goals of creating a local food co-op in order to close the gap between supplier and consumer demands. We will be hosting frequent Meet & Greet Orientations, so make sure to follow our Facebook Page for event updates!
